Nine People I Want to Know Better!

thank you @burgeoning-ambition for tagging me :)

Last Song: Interesting enough, it appears that my last song was 夜に駆ける by YOASOBI. I do this thing sometimes where I cruise around town while playing Japanese music in my car and trying to follow the words (even if I don’t understand all of them). It’s also nice when I’m listening to a song and I suddenly realize that I understood what they sang at a certain part. It’s just another fun way I like to fit Japanese into my life!

Last Show: It’s been almost a month I last got into a TV show. I was attempting to begin Bungo Stray Dogs a few weeks ago but haven’t found the time to continue it. The last show I finished must have been The Morning Show earlier this month. It’s addicting and Billy Crudup is just really hot in the show. And before that, it might have been Banana Fish (which was so incredibly good, I highly recommend).

Currently Watching: I’m trying to push through the Evangelion rebuilds right now. I’ve already seen the first three and half of the final one before, but I never finished the last one because I wanted to savor it (apparently it’s a really satisfying ending). So right now I’m rewatching them all. As a mega-fan of Neon Genesis Evangelion, I have quite some polarizing thoughts about the rebuilds of Evangelion, but I digress. Once I’m done, I’ll probably rewatch NGE because I think I’m just back in my Evangelion hyper-fixation phase.

Currently Reading: The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami. I am kind of a mega-fan of Murakami books, if you could even call me one. I’ve told myself that I want to read all of his books before I’m thirty (that gives me a lot of time). This is apparently considered to be one of his very best, and I’m quite enjoying it. I’d say I’m probably 3/4ths of the way through it. Maybe I’ll finish it on my red-eye flight tomorrow.

It feels quite funny to look back on all of my answers and see Japanese influences popping up into all of them. This is just the way I keep myself engaged and motivated to continue my studies. If I had no Japanese influence outside of my language studies, I’d probably lose interest really quickly. So it’s good that Japan’s culture and media is endlessly engaging for me.

long time no see yall, so I passed jlpt n3 and honestly im proud of myself for pulling through the whole year and actually passing the exam. also done with the first semester this year and waiting for the results

[amistudyblr]

Just learned that 落ち着いた could mean to get settled in a new house, never knew it was used in that context

The example was something like this:

落ち着いたら、みんなを招待します。
